“A panel of young judges from across Lancashire came together on the 23^rd May in the nail-biting conclusion to this year’s book award.  The winner they selected was Tim Lott for his first book for young people, “Fearless”.  The award will be presented at an award ceremony at County Hall on 21^st June”.

So congratulations to Tim and also to the rest of the 2008 shortlist.
